Oh it is. It is 960.5mb. It obviously won't fit on a CD. My question is: Did I miss something and there is a a) CD sized live disk download, b) a way to make one (easily), or c) another way to get the F18 on to my old machine? I can't do it over a network because the Old Machine had a broken eth0 and I have installed a new eth1 card. I am trying to get the eth1 card working which is why I thought I would upgrade my OS first. -- Regards Bill Fedora 16, Gnome 3.2.1 Evo.3.2.3, Emacs 23.3.1 -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
